Ah, you must be using PHP 4 or earlier, then. array_combine() was apparently introduced in PHP 5...

A workaround for that should be fairly simple... find the line

   $newsarray = array_combine($newsids, $newsinfo);

in the Import News plugin on global_start, and replace it with

   $newsarray = array();
   for ($i = 0; i < count($newsids); i++)
   {
      $newsarray["$newsids[$i]"] = $newsinfo[$i];
   }

That should work basically the same as that built-in function.
